69. Deputy Eoghan Murphy
asked the
Minister for Education and Skills
his plans to open a primary school (details supplied) in Dublin 6.
[28046/11]

Minister for Education and Skills (Deputy Ruairí Quinn):In June of this year I announced that up to 40 new schools are to be established within the next six years, comprising of twenty new primary schools and twenty new post-primary schools to cater for the increase in school going population across these identified locations. It is not proposed to open a new primary school in the general Dublin 6 area as the demographics of the area do not support the need for a new school.
